java.endorsed.dirs

Is it possible to use the property java.endorsed.dirs on 
the iSeries? I accidentally ran a Java program with the 
1.3 JDK and got an error that the SAX parser was not found. 
Before I noticed that I was using the wrong JDK I tried 
setting java.endorsed.dirs to point to where I have Xerces 
installed. When it didn't fix the problem I added Xerces to 
my class path and realized I was using the 1.3 JDK when it 
worked.

After fixing the JDK issue, I retested and it looks like the 
Xerces parser is not being used. It looks like it is using 
Crimson. I am running this in Qshell with: 
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=lib/endorsed. I have tried qualifying 
this back to the root, which didn't help. There is no reference 
to java.endorsed.dirs in the iSeries Java documentation but 
an APAR SE08514 does mention it.

Thanks,

David Morris
